Revolutionizing the Student Information System Market
Backpack SIS provides a level of information transparency and accountability that puts it into a class by itself. Backpack SIS goes above and beyond providing all the functions that a district and school require of a student information system, such as:
- Enrollment, Registration, & Master Scheduling
- Course/Class Management
- Grade Book
- Attendance & Seating Charts
- Discipline & Incident Reporting
- Special Education
- Teams/Club Tracking
- Notification & Alert Subscriptions
- Comprehensive School & State Reporting
- Bus Route Management
Built on State-of-the-Art Technology
Learning new software can be challenging. To make it easier, Backpack SIS is built on Microsoft Dynamics CRM’s infrastructure. Backpack’s connection with CRM allows for the SIS to efficiently tie into many existing Microsoft software packages, making Backpack as simple to learn as opening a Microsoft Office product. It leverages its built in functionality to provide a rich user experience—all activity and calendar information can be synched directly with Microsoft Outlook. It’s the ideal software that allows a district to run smoothly, and provides unparalleled communication and efficiency.
Information Transparency
For a student information system, information transparency means providing school executives with insight into the effectiveness of its curriculum and staff, providing school administrators with insight into how their school compares to other schools in the district and the state as a whole and how each teacher compares against the rest of the teachers in the school and district. For parents, information transparency means knowing more than just their children’s grades. It is having the insight into individual assignments, attendance and tardiness, and discipline incidents.
